Live performance on the Ed Sullivan Show

Below is a short excerpt from the opening measure of “I Want To Hold Your Hand”

Note, the melody begins on the first string but by the 2nd full measure it drops to the 2nd, 3rd then 4th strings. . . This is a rare occasion where I have brought the melody to the 4th string. It just happens to occur in the midst of a short riff . . . . Using a low G that 4th fret note on the 4th string is perfect. . . On a standard tuning it works, but sounds just a bit different. . .
